Capability Mapping (CapMap) Online Search Tool

The New Zealand Food Safety Science & Research Centre (NZFSSRC) has launched an exciting initiative to provide access to capability, resources and research projects on food safety. A searchable database is now available on the NZFSSRC website containing information for over 400 individuals, 18 organisations, 214 individual facilities, and more than 400 projects related to national food safety science and research.

The information is a valuable resource for anyone wanting to identify individuals and resources available to provide research and advice on food safety. The database will be maintained and regularly updated by the NZFSSRC.

The Centre thanks all the organisations and 421 scientists who contributed to the Project and to the report, available to view here

It's not too late

If you missed the Centre's first national meeting in Nelson on 3 July, it's not too late to hear some of the informative, interesting and sometimes humorous, presentations by our international science advisory board members, and local industry, government and science contributors, including some brave students. We thank them for allowing us to post the videos of their presentations. We are very grateful to our special guests and colleagues from China, Professor Xianming Shi (Shanghai Jao-Tong University) and Professor Winston Duo Wu (Soochow University) for coming to this meeting and presenting to us in English.
